The ReidOut with Joy Reid

In this edition of The ReidOut, Joy Reid covers a federal judge ruling that the Trump White House has violated his order to restore frozen federal funding—raising a big what-if: What if Donald Trump simply ignored that judge and other courts that tell him his actions are illegal? We also revisit Trump's promise to lower grocery prices, when he said, “When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One.” But they are still rising--and apparently he does not want to talk about it anymore. Next, Trump also took an expensive mini-vacation to the Super Bowl, making history as the first president to attend the game in person. Taxpayers footed the bill, including the cost of Air Force One and security for his entourage. We have more on what many see as the waste of this trip. Plus, Elon Musk’s "DOGE" gang has infiltrated and effectively shut down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a federal agency designed to protect consumers from predatory bankers and credit card companies. Our financial expert guest discusses how this may impact you. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this edition of The ReidOut with Donald Trump aligning with President Elon Musk in calling for an end to USAID—the same agency that First Lady Melania Trump once praised as embodying her "Be Best" initiative and that Ivanka Trump used to launch a highly publicized program to empower women in developing countries. Less than three weeks into this new administration, we are already facing what many are calling a constitutional crisis, and it is not coming from the man elected to sit behind the Resolute Desk, but from the unelected billionaire seemingly pulling the strings—Elon Musk. Listen now to this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this edition of The ReidOut with Donald Trump's second choice for U.S. attorney general, Pam Bondi, being sworn in by Clarence Thomas after vowing to end the "weaponization" of the DOJ, only to immediately launch a probe into prosecutors Jack Smith, Alvin Bragg, and Letitia James for prosecuting Trump. And, we discuss the Senate voting to confirm Russell Vought on Thursday, a self-proclaimed Christian nationalist tied to Project 2025, which Trump falsely claimed to know nothing about. Plus, Joy breaks Trump's "shock and awe" strategy in his second administration, which is designed to inspire fear and outrage, creating problems only to pretend to solve them, while keeping his base engaged as his administration dismantles the federal government. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this edition of The ReidOut with a reminder of, "What about her emails?" In the wake that controversy, which many see as fabricated by the GOP, Donald Trump’s CIA has now committed what is being called a counterintelligence disaster by reportedly sending the names of recently hired CIA employees to the White House in an unclassified email. Plus, fear and outrage has errupted in the Middle East after Trump’s irresponsible remarks about turning Gaza into a "Riviera" of the Middle East, permanently stealing the homes of two million Gazans. We also cover growing glimmers of the rebel alliance, as thousands of Americans in fifty states took to the streets on Wednesday to reject the hostile, MAGA takeover of American democracy—denouncing everything from Trump’s calls to occupy Gaza to his Project 2025 playbook and the seemingly unlimited authority Trump has handed to Elon Musk, with zero checks and balances and no oversight.

President Donald Trump suggested that the U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip during a joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, something Trump has never said before. Joy Reid and her panel discuss on The ReidOut on MSNBC.

In this edition of The ReidOut, Joy Reid brings you the latest on Donald Trump's tariff threats and the fear of mass firings at the FBI as the Trump administration demands the names of every agent who worked on the January 6th investigations. Also tonight, we begin bringing you good news amid all the horror. We call this seies our "Moment of Joy," and it comes up later in the show. But, Joy begins with a full-on crisis in our democracy, as federal workers are literally locked out of their offices while operatives working for a private citizen essentially take over our government.
